Kentucky Revised 2022 SUTA Wage Base

Kentucky suspended the taxable wage increase for 2022. The state’s unemployment-taxable wage base for 2022 decreases from $11,100 to $10,800. This update is effective January 1, 2022, retroactively.

Attention: For more information, refer to: https://kewes.ky.gov/Contact/contacts.aspx?strid=2.

Note: This enhancement requires patch dbc_810_10865.

The Taxpayer First Act, which became Public Law 116-25 on July 2019, requires more employers to file W-2s or W-2Cs electronically. Although the IRS has not yet issued formal regulation on the implementation, here is the tentative schedule:

• By midnight on January 31, 2022, employers who file 100 or more W-2s or W-2Cs will have to send W-2s or W-2Cs to SSA electronically.

• By midnight on January 31, 2023, employers who file 10 or more W-2s or W-2Cs will have to send W-2s or W-2Cs to SSA electronically.

When the IRS issues formal guidance on implementing this new law, the above date may change. The IRS has the authority to penalize any employer who does not file electronically if they meet the threshold.

Costpoint has existing capability to generate EFW2. However, to support IRS requirements, Costpoint adds the ability to generate EFW2C to the Create Federal W-2 File screen. W-2 corrections beginning tax year 2021 will also be supported.

Attention: For more information, refer to:

• Taxpayer First Act: https://www.ssa.gov/employer/taxpayer.html

• Filing Forms W-2c Electronically (EFW2C) for Tax Year 2021: https://www.ssa.gov/employer/EFW2&EFW2C.htm

 

Create W-2 Table (PRPCW2)

You can now generate W-2c records on the Create W-2 Table screen. The screen provides the following new options:

Field	Description
Record Type	Select which type of records you are processing. Valid options are: W-2: Select this option if you are processing Form W-2 records. W-2c: Select this option if you are processing Form W-2c records. A W-2c can only be created if a W-2 record exists for the Payroll Year/Taxable Entity/Employee/Tax Service Group ID. W-2c records can be viewed and edited on the Manage W-2Cs screen. If you select this option, the application will generate the new Create W-2c Table Report. Note: Deltek recommends the use of Arial Narrow font for the Create W-2c Table Report.
Recreate W-2s/W-2Cs	Select this check box to recreate the W-2 or W-2c table. When you select this check box, Costpoint implements the following: If you select W-2 as the Record Type, then any edits entered on the Manage W-2s screen are lost when you recreate the W-2 table. If you select W-2c as the Record Type, then any edits entered on the Manage W-2Cs screen are lost for the record with the highest sequence number when you recreate the W-2c table.

The application will insert W-2c data into the following new W-2c tables:

• FED_W2C_FILE

• BOX_12_W2C_FILE

• STATE_W2C_FILE

• LOCAL_W2C_FILE

 

Manage W-2Cs (PRMW2C)

The new Manage W-2Cs screen provides you with the ability to add, retrieve, view, or edit W-2c records. This includes the following actions:

• View or edit W-2c data created by the Create W-2 Table screen.

• Change amounts of an existing W-2c.

• Enter new records.

• Manually add a W-2c record to correct a previously reported W-2 or W-2c.

The information on this screen will be used to create the electronic federal W-2c (EFW2C) on the Create Federal W-2 File screen. You can edit this screen after creating the W-2c table on the Create W-2 Table screen and before generating the electronic W-2c on the Create Federal W-2 File screen. To access this screen, click People » Payroll » Year-End Processing » Manage W-2Cs.

 

Create Federal W-2 File (PRPW2F)

You can now create an electronic W-2c file on the Create Federal W-2 File screen. The screen provides the following new options:

Field	Description
File Type	Select the type of file that you are processing. The following are the options: EFW2: Select this option if you are creating electronic W-2 (EFW2) for submitting annual Form W-2 Copy A (Wage and Tax Statement W-2) data. EFW2C: Select this option if you are creating electronic W-2c (EFW2C) for submitting annual Form W-2C Copy A (Corrected Wage and Tax Statement W-2C) data. If you select this option, the application will generate the new Federal W-2c File Report. Note: Deltek recommends the use of Arial Narrow font for the Federal W-2c File Report.
Originally Reported Establishment Number	The Establishment Number is a four-position identifier determined by the employer, which further distinguishes the employer reported in an RCE (Employer) Record. The establishment number can be alpha, numeric, or alphanumeric. Enter the incorrectly reported Establishment Number. This field will only be enabled if File Type is EFW2C. Leave the field blank if you are not correcting the originally reported Establishment Number.
Correct Establishment Number	The Establishment Number is a four-position identifier determined by the employer, which further distinguishes the employer reported in an RCE (Employer) Record. The establishment number can be alpha, numeric, or alphanumeric. Enter the correct Establishment Number. This field will only be enabled if File Type is EFW2C. Leave the field blank if you are not correcting the originally reported Establishment Number. You may use this field even if you are not correcting the originally reported Establishment Number. For multiple RCE (Employer) Records with the same EIN, you may use this field to assign a unique identifier to each RCE (Employer) Record. For example, store or factory locations or types of payroll.

 

Export Payroll Taxes (PRPEXTAX)

You can now export W-2c data on the Export Payroll Taxes screen. The screen provides the following new option:

Field	Description
W-2c	Select this option to create the W-2c tax file. Any data provided in the Manage W-2Cs table will be exported. If you select this option, the application will generate the new Export Payroll Taxes Report (W-2c File).

The application will source the W-2c data from the following new W-2c tables:

• FED_W2C_FILE

• BOX_12_W2C_FILE

• STATE_W2C_FILE

• LOCAL_W2C_FILE

The following are the updates to the file and report:

• A new field, Record Type, was added to the W-2 file to distinguish the W-2 (Record Type: W2) information from W-2c (Record Type: W2C). If the Record Type is W2, existing W-2 fields will continue to report the W-2 information. If the Record Type is W2C, existing W-2 fields will report the correct information from W-2c tables.

• New W-2 File fields were added to report the previously reported information from W-2c tables.

• A new report, Export Payroll Taxes Report - W-2c File, was added to separately report W-2c data.

 

Print Data Dictionary Report (SYRDD)

The Print Data Dictionary Report now provides information for the following new tables:

• FED_W2C_FILE

• BOX_12_W2C_FILE

• STATE_W2C_FILE

• LOCAL_W2C_FILE

• Work Package

The Level at which to capture actual costs field is required, and your selection in this field must match the selection on Cobra's Project Properties screen.

Defect 1626699: When you ran the Compute Cobra Burden Costs process, an error occurred because the level for actual cost information was missing. To address this issue, you can now specify the Level at which to capture actual costs on the Manage Cobra Extraction Parameters screen. The new drop-down list provides the following options:

• Control Account

• Work Package

The Level at which to capture actual costs field is required, and your selection in this field must match the selection on Cobra's Project Properties screen.

• The timesheet lines had line dates.

• The Overtime Basis for the state was Weekly.

In this scenario, the allocation only worked correctly when you selected the Daily option as the Overtime Calculation Method. This setup is wrong since the Overtime Calculation Method should match the state setup.

Defect 1633187: You could not export charge trees from Costpoint when Tree Code was set to Project Owning Org. Charge tree exports stopped responding at 90%, and then the process failed.

Defect 1644244: After you upgraded to MR 8.1.4, Costpoint no longer exported company groups to Deltek Time and Expense. This issue occurred when you have only one company in Costpoint.

Defect 1622986: When the billing currency was not equal to the functional currency and there was a bill already posted for the project, this application ignored the direct cost ceiling that was set up for an account when computing bills.

As a workaround, when the ceiling is reached, you can set the transaction amount to on-hold so the bill will not be calculated for the account.

Defect 1623152: A system error occurred when you calculated a bill for a project with Customer Terms set to the 31st DOM in Manage Project User Flow.

As a workaround, set Position of Fiscal Year Code to Last.

Defect 1638823: When the Use Transactional Currency Billing check box was selected on the Manage Project Billing Information screen and you ran Calculate Standard Bills for records with a billing currency not equal to the functional currency, the total of the WAWF_WH_AMT column did not match the Withholding amount under the MU_RTNGE_AMT column in the BILL_EDIT_DETL table.

Defect 1638881: There was a rounding issue in WAWF columns for multicurrency bills in the BILL_EDIT_DETL table, which caused a mismatch between the Current ACRN Value and Invoice Amount on the Manage ACRN Bills screen.

Defect 1621176: Costpoint did not allow you to post revenue to inactive account/organization combinations when Rate Type was set to Target, Total Target Revenue Amount was equal to Reallocation Amount, and Total Target Revenue Amount was not equal to zero in the PROJ_SUM table. Actual revenue and reallocation amounts, on the other hand, were not equal. The system should not have validated for invalid account/organization combinations.

Defect 1605571: This utility was not identifying all invalid project segments.

Defect 1615139: When you entered only incurred amounts in Microsoft Excel and copy-pasted these data into the Details table window, Costpoint also populated direct allowed amounts.

Defect 1603305: When Include Previous Day(s) Overtime Hours was selected in Timesheet Class settings, the setting was not properly applied during validation, so errors and warnings failed to display.

Defect 1608362: Though the user's locale was configured for non-English, the text associated with signing the timesheet displayed in English.

Defect 1612488: When users who did not have an employee record in Time & Expense opened the Timesheet application, they experienced a system error instead of receiving an error message.

Defect 1622352: SQL query response time was accelerated to improve performance in the Timesheet and Manage/Approve Timesheets applications.

Defect 1626711: The Timesheet lookup for work assignments should have displayed only work assignments associated with Services.

Defect 1630395: A performance issue occurred with the Group Cache charge lookup/manual entry if the employee was assigned to a large number of charge restrictions (around 90,000 or greater).

Defect 1631322: When you used an account that did not apply toward Overtime hours, those hours also did not count as regular hours. Thus, when you tried to sign the timesheet, you received an error message indicating that the timesheet did not contain the minimum number of regular hours.

Defect 1646032: When you configured the Validation field as Error or Warning for both Weekly Overtime and Daily Overtime, the validation setting for Weekly Overtime reverted to None after the new timesheet class was created.
